Culture West Midlands: Aims

Our Aims

Culture is a major contributor to economic prosperity and social development. The creative industries alone employ over 1 million people in the UK and together with the tourism industry contribute 12.7% of the GDP. But culture also has a vital role to play in encouraging community cohesion; attracting and retaining a skilled workforce; creating appealing and exciting places to live; and unlocking individual potential through new ways of learning, discovery and expression.

Culture West Midlands aims to be: the collective voice for the West Midlands cultural sector and to promote collaborative working in order to enhance the region's cultural offer and its contribution to quality of life.
